I am so lucky!
Posted on March 12, 2018
In this job I see all sorts of horns, everything from student horns all the way up the this one. A client brought in a 1957 Selmer Mark VI for a complete overhaul. I gave it the works! All new Pisoni pads with the original Selmer resonators and the key work was tightened up as well. Now this horn plays like a dream!! It's so sad to see it go...

Buescher Alto
Posted on February 9, 2018
Another client horn, but this one is from the late 1920’s. I’m a sucker for older Bueschers, and this one cleaned up really well. It needed quite a bit of work and a complete disassembly so I took the opportunity to shine it up. That silver plate against the gold washed bell looks soooo nice!!

Bundy Tenor
Posted on February 9, 2018
A client brought this old Bundy tenor in for a tune-up. To be honest I wasn’t expecting much, because …..well….it’s a Bundy. It’s hard to nail down a date on this one, but I believe it is from the late 1940’s or 50’s. The client had removed the lacquer on the bell and I kind of like the patina. What really shocked me about this horn was how it played. It was really free blowing and had a massive sound, especially down low. I have to say, if I played tenor regularly I would consider this one as my main horn!!
